When he dated Taylor Swift I remember remarking that if they got married they’d have the same name, it’s satisfying to find out all these years later that it actually happened, albeit with a different woman called Taylor

You think it's some sort of accident? Dude went around only dating Taylor's for this exact reason.

Maybe he’s just one of those guys that has a cheesy pickup line about having the same name, and it just happen to work twice on different women named Taylor.

Or maybe there was a period when parents were very unoriginal with naming their kids.

Funny story. My daughter was born in 2005. We had no strong favorites, but we ended up liking Ava a lot. You know, not original, but a nice name that was pretty rare in 2005.

Fast forward a couple years and I’m reading the paper. An article listing the top baby names from the last couple years, I think it was only MN, but what was #1 for girls in 2005? Ava.

A friend of mind just named her youngest son Henry. In my whole life, I've never met a Henry (that I know of). My friend said that not only did she just become aware of several kids named 'Henry' in her area that are the same age as her son, two of them have the same middle name.

Sometimes it happens. I have known an irrational number of women named Sarah in my life, none related to me. I don’t know why and I certainly didn’t look for women named Sarah. Taylor might just be a name that is common in Lautner’s generation.

I did know someone who dated only Maddies (as far as I could tell). Maybe 5 in a row? His name unfortunately was not Matt lmao

C’mon, you really think Taylor Swift would have changed her last name?
